Whilst there are even more important battles being fought off the pitch, you cannot understate the importance of the club holding on to its National League South status.
We all started the season desperate to get out of this league, now we are even more desperate to stay in it!
Three months ago, we were twenty points ahead of Welling. Now we need to win this six-pointer to draw level with them!
Welling were in a terrible mess but have been able to turn it round. A sharp contrast to our unwillingness to change a losing formula. Trying to defend in a professional manner would help!
A win today would put some clear blue water between us and the drop zone but, unless we buck up, the chances of a win seem very remote.
Sounds as if Jarvis, Martin and Craske are still missing but Dawson may come back into the 16.
With another game on Monday, managing pitch time for the likes of Dawson, Lapslie and Hall will be uppermost in Downes' thoughts.
I don't think Ofori-Acheampong has 90 minutes in him, but is he best softening up the opposition from the start before giving way to a nippier option or is he better used as an impact sub? Answers on a postcard.
I will be listening to Radio Devon - more in hope than in expectation!
